Mission Staff

At every edition of the Canada Games, Team Sask assigns one mission staff to each sport to act as a liaison between the sport and the host society. Their primary function is to ensure that athletes, coaches and managers can focuse solely on competition and representing Saskatchewan to the best of their ability. Mission staff handle any issues that may come up, answer questions or concerns, and act as your biggest cheerleader!

In addition to one mission staff per sport, there is also a Chef de Mission and two Assistant Chefs de Mission. The leadership team has been involved in the planning stages of the Games since the beginning, and you can consider the Chef de Mission the "team captain."

A core group of mission staff are also responsible for Logistics and Communications, which includes the organizing of transportation, team uniforms, photography, pins, digital and social media, media relations, and more. Team Sask will also bring an integrated support team to the 2027 Canada Winter Games in Quebec City, including Medical Liaisons, a Sport Dietician, and a Mental Performance Consultant. The Team Sask Mental Performance Consultant and Sport Dietician are available to teams and individual athletes upon request before and during Games time.
